In her case, it still would be oedipal due to her background: she was created and molded to be a non genetic replica, or clone if you will, of Eva. Mundus says to Dante if he needs a mother, Mundus could create how mothers he wants, just like he created Trish. Everytime Trish appears in DMC1, her music is a variation of Eva's theme; everytime Dante touches his amulet, Trish appears at his side; her voice is the same of Eva.She was to be b a well made copy of Eva.Yes, he says she is nothing like Eva in that nightmare cutscene, but later Dante says she´protected him like his mother did, so the two women´s association continues.Trish's looks is her defining treat; if we take it from her, we take "everything" since her character was poor developed.

About Eva's personality, we know very  little about her. we only have fandom assumptions about what she could be.

DmC Dante/ Kat relationship was explained by Eshiro who said she was not to be a love interest, but would help Dante to develop a more "human" side and to deal with his feelings.

DMC writers were never keen to shut the door to the notion Dante/Trish relationship was romantic in nature and, in fact, their interaction is quite "heavy" and awkward, as there is something that no one wants to talk about.This seems to feed up a lot of speculation towards the situation.
